Cable Coupling Connector for Vehicle Door - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18470688 titled 'Cable Coupling Connector for Vehicle Door

The embodiment cable coupling connector described in the patent application consists of an outer connector with a terminal housing and an outer combination unit, an inner connector with a coupling cap unit connected to a cable inside a vehicle body, a terminal unit extending from the coupling cap unit, and an inner combination unit coupled with the outer combination unit by surrounding the terminal unit.

  • The connector hook on the outer combination unit and the pressing portion on the plug are essential components for locking the connector hook to the pressing portion and coupling the outer connector and the plug securely.
  • The slide lever inserted between the outer and inner combination units plays a crucial role in pressing against the connector hook towards the pressing portion to ensure a tight lock.
  • The plug covers the outer combination unit and is connected to a cable pulled out of the vehicle door, providing a secure connection to the terminal unit.
  • The design of the connector allows for easy coupling and uncoupling of the outer connector and the plug, making it convenient for maintenance and repairs.
  • Overall, this cable coupling connector design aims to provide a reliable and secure connection for cables inside a vehicle body.
